Marshmallows

So... I like marshmallows and was missing a fluffiness in my life. So about a month ago, I went hunting in the big stores that carry ingredients and foods from other countries. We have an amazing superstore called Carrefour, it´s French, and it´s about the size of a Sam´s store and has everything from oil changes, complete grocery store, toy store, hardware, electronics, appliances, and clothing/shoes for everyone. It´s not that it´s terribly far from where I live, but I have to catch two separate buses to make my way over there. About an 1/8 of a mile before you get to Carrefour, there is a Lidl, which I think is German. Amazingly enough I found marshmallows in both places (and pretzels too). However, I prefer unflavored or white standard marshmallows. What other kind could there be, you might ask. Well, they come in all kinds of colors like yelow and pink and white and orange and purple all in one marshmallow, and they usually carry a different flavor, like strawberry. And they are made up of spirals or quadruple helixes. Here´s a blog with a pretty picture of what people here like to do with candies, gummies, and marshmallows. http://recetasymascosas.blogspot.com/2008/04/tarta-de-nubes-y-de-pastillas-de-goma.html

I don´t know. I´m debating whether or not I like the marshmallows here. I do like the texture.

So, What I´m planning on doing is making homemade marshmallows from scratch. I´ve heard that they are way better. Also, you can control what you eat when you make it, so you don´t have do consume weird dyes, flavors, or additives. But before I get into heavy duty candy making, I want to try out a recipe for marshmallow creme. I´ve found two different recipes for it and hope it works with a simple syrup, since I don´t have access to corn syrup. I´ll post the results on how it turns out.
